Vedansh ek bade, rich aur powerful ghar ka beta tha. Uski life mein sab kuch perfect tha – family, wealth, respect… aur ab ek shaadi ka rishta tay hone wala tha – Shivanya ke saath. Shivanya ki simplicity aur intelligence ne Vedansh ke ghar walon ko instantly impress kar diya tha.
Par Vedansh ke liye ye sirf ek rishta tha – ek arrangement. Use pata tha ki shaadi ke baad bhi, emotions ko manage karna hoga. Lekin ghar walon ke pressure aur family prestige ke wajah se, koi option nahi tha.
Shivanya ke life mein bhi ek twist tha. Wo kisi aur se pyar karti thi – ek ladka jise wo secretly milti, jisse dil se connect karti. Har baar Vedansh ka naam sunte hi, uske dil mein ek ajeeb sa tension aur guilt ka mix hota.
Pari, Vedansh ki cousin aur ghar ki chhoti "planner" aur mischievous wali cousin, sabko shaadi ke liye excite kar rahi thi. Usko pata tha ki Shivanya ke dil mein koi aur hai, aur usne decide kiya – "Thoda drama create karte hain, maza aayega."
Ek din, Vedansh aur Shivanya ki first meeting set hui. Ghar ki shobha aur grandeur dekh kar Shivanya thodi nervous thi. Vedansh ka confident aur powerful aura poore room mein dominate kar raha tha.
Vedansh ne politely bola, "Shivanya, aap se mil kar accha laga."
Shivanya ne shy smile ke saath reply kiya, "Mujhe bhi…" par uske andar ka heart kisi aur ke liye dhadak raha tha.
Vedansh ne notice kiya ki Shivanya thodi hesitant hai, par usne socha, "Time ke saath sab smooth ho jayega."
Pari room ke corner se cheekh maar kar bola, "Awww! Dono ka chemistry kaafi… interesting lag raha hai na?"
Shivanya ki aankhon mein guilt aur tension ka mix tha. Vedansh ne subtly uske expressions observe kiye – uski shyness, hesitation aur kabhi kabhi ki distraction. Vedansh ki curiosity aur thodi possessive feeling trigger hui.
Shivanya bas ek baat soch rahi thi: Kaash sab kuch easy hota. Kaash main apne feelings openly express kar paati… par ye rishta aur family… sab complicate kar raha hai.
Meeting ke end mein, Vedansh politely bola, "Kal phir milte hain. Shaadi ke arrangements ke liye discussion hai."
Shivanya ne sirf nod kiya, par uske dil mein confusion aur tension ka storm chal raha tha.
Aur room ke corner se Pari ne muskurate hue dekha: "Ye toh bas start hai… drama abhi shuru hua hai."
Shivanya ke dil ki baat kisi aur ke liye thi, par Vedansh ke powerful presence ke samne… kaun pehle apni feelings reveal karega?
Agla part – Vedansh ka possessive aur protective nature aur Shivanya ke emotional conflict ka full dose.
